Levante vs Villarreal Prediction & Betting Tips (14 December)

In the same basket as Oviedo, Levante is in the tough at the bottom of the table. Almost halfway through the season, the Granotes are last in the elite with 9 points on the clock. It has now been 7 days of the championship since Levante has celebrated a single victory. Last weekend, by losing to Osasuna 2-0, Levante suffered a 5th successive defeat in the league after those experienced against Bilbao 0-2, Valencia 1-0, Atlético Madrid 3-1 and Celta Vigo 1-2. The Yellow Sub Marine advances with confidence on the Levante pitch due to its very good dynamic. 3rd at the start of this day, Villarreal still has a day late to play, and even without the latter, a success at the end of regulation time would allow them to move ahead of Real Madrid in 2nd place. Marcelino's men are aiming for a 7th success in a row in La Liga this afternoon.

Last weekend, they did not give Getafe a 2-0 victory, after their success obtained at the Anoeta Arena of Real Sociedad victory 2-3, at home against Mallorca 2-1, on the turf of Espanyol 0-2, in demonstration for the reception of Rayo Vallecano 4-0 and without conceding a goal in Mestalla against Valencia 0-2. This week, Villarreal was playing for its future in the Champions League against Copenhagen and suffice to say that the carrots are practically cooked with a place in the play-off lost 2-3. Villarreal has always chased the score... 

At the heart of this Levante formation, it is important to note the defections of defenders De la Fuente, Elgezabal and Matias Moreno without forgetting those of midfielder Martinez and attacker Espi (injured). Starting at the start of the season, midfielder Rey sees his playing time adjusted in order to avoid a relapse. Offensively, Cameroon international Etta Eyong (6 goals, 3 assists) and Ivan Romero (4 goals) are expected to tip the balance in the right direction. The three long-term injured, Logan Costa, Kambwala and Pau Cabanes, will not play today. Recently, the legendary Gerard Moreno (4 goals in 7 appearances in La Liga this season) returned to the infirmary alongside the starting right back Mourino and midfielder Parejo. Former Arsenal midfielder Partey is also physically hampered (out) while former Marseillais Pape Gueye will be back from suspension. Against Getafe, Georges Mikautadze scored his 3rd goal in La Liga while Canadian winger Buchanan scored a nice banger, his 4th pawn in La Liga this season.

Ayoze Perez (Spanish international), Nicolas Pepe (not selected for the CAN with Ivory Coast) and Alberto Moleiro (6 goals, 2 offerings in La Liga) will be operational for this short trip. The probable line-ups for Levante - Villarreal: Levante: Ryan - Toljan, Matturro, Cabello, M.Sanchez - Alvarez, Arriaga, Vencedor, Brugué (or Losada) - Eyong, Romero. Villarreal: Junior - P.Navarro (or Mourino), Foyth, Veiga, Cardona (or Pedraza) - Buchanan, Gueye (or Parejo), Comesana, Moleiro - Mikautadze (or Pépé), A.Perez.
